Today, with growing awareness and concern for environmental issues, there is a movement to stem further damage to the countryside and replace some of the values which have been lost. Voluntary non-profit organisations which own and manage land for countryside conservation are playing an increasingly important role in this movement. These are called CARTs Conservation, Amenity and Recreation Trusts. Countryside in Trust explores the principles behind this movement and investigates the activities of the wide range of organisations involved, both large and small, including the National Trust, The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, and the Scottish Tree Trust. The origins and experiences of CARTs are traced in a series of chapters which examine the different types of organisation, their land management activities and finances, and their close relationship with government agencies at all levels. Finally, the authors describe the role of public policy towards CARTs and assess the implications for the future. This is the first book to examine the large numbers of landholding environmental and amenity trusts in the UK, and is essential reading for students, voluntary organisations, conservation groups, land owners and local authorities.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSETTING THE SCENE.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Changing Rural Context and the Place of CollectiveAction.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Changing Interests in Rural Land.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Collective Action and the Public Interest.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Control of Rural Land.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e CARTs Today.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e TRUSTS IN ACTION.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Conserving Tradition: The National Trusts.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e From Grassroots to Federation: The Wildlife Trusts.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Single-Objective-Led Sucess: The Royal Society for the Protectionof Birds.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Private Land Trusts: Philanthropy or Survival?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Local Community Inspired CARTs.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Trusts from the Public Sector.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e LAND MANAGEMENT: PROBLEMS AND POTENTIAL.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Actions for the Environment.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Finance.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Competition or Co-Operation -\u003cbr\u003e An Ecology of CARTs.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Role of Public Policy.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Implications and the Future.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e References.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Earth sciences [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Earth sciences\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Earth%20sciences%20%5BRB%5D%22\"\u003eRB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52298075275544,"sku":"9780471948711","price":179.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471948711.jpg?v=1781734751","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/countryside-in-trust-land-management-by-conservation-recreation-and-amenity-organisations-hardback-9780471948711","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
